Core Requirements

DOE-STD-3006-2000

equipment to conduct work safely, hence these core requirements are directly related to the seven guiding

principles of integrated safety management. The core requirements apply to both DOE and the contractor

as appropriate, unless otherwise noted.

Core Requirements:

(1)

Line management has established programs to assure safe accomplishment of work (the

startup or restart authority should identify in the plan-of-action those specific infrastructure

programs of interest for the startup or restart). Personnel exhibit an awareness of public and

worker safety, health, and environmental protection requirements and, through their actions,

demonstrate a high- priority commitment to comply with these requirements. (CR #8) (CR

#14) 1

(2)

Functions, assignments, responsibilities, and reporting relationships (including those

between the line operating organization and ES&H support organizations) are clearly

defined, understood, and effectively implemented with line management responsibility for

control of safety. (CR #11)

(3)

The selection, training and qualification programs for operations and operations support

personnel have been established, documented, and implemented. The selection process and

applicable position-specific training for managers assures competence commensurate with

responsibilities. (The training and qualification program encompasses the range of duties and

activities required to be performed.) (CR #2)(CR#19)

(4)

Level of knowledge of managers, operations, and operations support personnel is adequate

based on reviews of examinations and examination results and selected interviews of

managers, operating, and operations support personnel. (CR #3) (CR #19)

(5)

Modifications to the facility have been reviewed for potential impacts on training and

qualification. Training has been performed to incorporate all aspects of these changes.

the core requirements as they appeared in the previous version of this Order, DOE O 425.1A.
